The Instron Standard Video Extensometer(SVE)is a non-contacting extensometer that meets most testing standards for accuracy. The SVE can be used to measure axial strain in a wide variety of materials through failure and provides many advantages over traditional contacting extensometers.

Screw side-action grips provide a very simple and efficient method for holding test specimens in a wide range of applications. The dual - acting design of 2710-100 series grips means that jaw faces can be adjusted to accommodate different specimen thicknesses. This ensures that the line of tensile force remains concentric with the grip body. They can be equipped with a selection of interchangeable grip jaw faces in various sizes and choice of surfaces including smooth ground, rubber-coated and serrated. Line contact and special coated faces are also available.The unique ‘snap-on’ jaw face attachment makes changing faces extremely quick and simple.
